This book dives into in-depth case studies across Thailand's low-lying coastal regions and its rapidly changing urban centers. It focuses on main coastal provinces and regions, where multidisciplinary research shows how hydro-meteorological hazards (such as storm surges, flash floods, erosion) are reshaping both natural environments and human systems. Detailed physico-geomorphological modelling reveals dramatic rates of erosion and accretion, up to -34.5 m/year on mangrove coastlines, versus -4 m/year on sandy beaches, with projections of increased storm severity and flooding because of sea-level rise.
